Carter Stanley beat Texas as a redshirt freshman—only his second game attempting more than 11 passes—by completing 50% of his throws for 220 yards, zero touchdowns, and an interception.
On Saturday, Stanley didn’t beat Texas for a second time, but his performance was one of the main reasons Kansas had a lead on the road against a top 15 team with a minute left. Stanley threw the first four-touchdown game of his career while tallying 310 yards on 27-47 passing.
These are two games near the bookends of his career that speak well to the potential and evolution of Stanley as a Jayhawk.
